The single six-year term was a pet proposal of Jimmy Carter's when he was in office.  He said that if there were one thing he could do simply with the stroke of a pen, that would be it.

Of course, one of his opponents said, "the best argument against a six-year term is sitting in the White House right now (meaning 1980)."  That about sums it up.  There's no reason to change the constitution on that.
